I am not sure if my problem is more related to the box being so old and 
slow with a minimum of RAM, I thought I would scale the box back to 
either FC5 or give Ubuntu server a try I suspect that both have a 
lighter load on the box.  About a week ago a number of people made some 
suggestions about how I could lighten the load on the box, a few of the 
suggestions helped but, the box still seems to chock on itself if I try 
to use it a anything other than a simple Desktop.  If I rebuild the box 
as either FC5 or 6 where would I find the pertinent log files any I 
could find did not have an entry  that was related to the problem. (I 
can't look at them now as he box has been reformated preparing to reload 
some other options)
